This past March at the 4x4x48 Sacred Run and Staking Ceremony in the Sam Houston National Forest with brother Chris Miller, former Secretary of Defence. Brother Chris got bullets in the front and knives in the back.
What hurt him most, he shared, was how his family was family was treated, adversarial, partisan politics at there best. I could relate. Mine have been bullets in the front and arrows and knives in the back.
We both agreed the most hurtful was when it was done by those we trusted. But that is how our spiritual journey is sometimes! At the same time, I have not been an Angel myself and have certainly been in that “tooth for a tooth mentally” at times.
As my beloved father always told me and reflected in his actions, we should not judge others, as none of us know what our own end will be!
Slowly but surely, through the Grace of our Creator, I am leaving the old warrior behind and beginning to become a wise elder, one day at a time. This means that no matter what happens you respond with wisdom and love, and not anger!
May we all have the best day ever, forever!
